Cheek Filler

The Cheek Filler procedure is designed to be relatively quick and comfortable. Dr. Jeremy Nikfarjam always takes measures to ensure your experience is as painless as possible with the use of a topical anesthetic or numbing cream as needed to minimize any potential discomfort. Most patients report only mild sensations during the procedure, and any lingering discomfort should resolve quickly.

The number of appointments needed for Cheek Filler depends on individual factors such as the extent of volume loss and the desired level of enhancement. In many cases, significant improvements can be achieved with just one session. Our team will assess your unique needs during the initial consultation and discuss the recommended number of appointments to achieve your aesthetic goals.

Results from Cheek Filler are often noticeable immediately after the procedure, providing an instant lift and enhanced contours. Some initial swelling may be present, so the final results will become more apparent as any potential swelling subsides. Most patients can enjoy the full and natural-looking effects of Cheek Filler within a few days to a week after the treatment.

Absolutely! Combining Cheek Filler with other procedures is an efficient way to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation based on your personal aesthetic goals. Some popular combinations include:

• Botox: Combining Cheek Filler with Botox is a popular choice to address both static and dynamic facial concerns. Cheek Filler enhances volume and contours, while Botox smooths lines and wrinkles, creating an overall harmonious and youthful appearance.
• Jawline Contouring: Pairing Cheek Filler with Jawline Contouring provides an overall enhancement to the lower face. This combination adds volume to the cheeks for a lifted look, while jawline contouring defines the lower face, creating a more sculpted and balanced profile.
• Lip Filler: Achieve overall facial harmony by combining Cheek Filler with Lip Augmentation. Enhancing both the mid-face and lips creates a balanced and proportional appearance, contributing to a youthful and aesthetically pleasing look.

While Cheek Filler is considered to be a safe and low-risk treatment, it’s important to be aware of the potential side effects and risks which include:

• Bruising: Mild bruising at the injection site is common and usually resolves within a few days.
• Swelling: Temporary swelling may occur, but it typically diminishes within a week.
• Redness: Temporary redness at the injection site is possible and usually subsides shortly after the procedure.
• Tenderness: The treated area may be tender to the touch, but this discomfort is generally mild and short-lived.
• Allergic Reaction: While rare, there’s a minimal risk of an allergic reaction to the filler which is why it’s crucial to discuss any allergies during your consultation.
